If you car to fight for the allies on the European war front and decide to Join the French forces you can earn 6 rents a day back of the firing lines and 30 cents a day while in the tranches.

He aid. however, that, the German soldier Is still- most confident of winning the war and that it would take some months to break this confidence, as there exists on the German side a feel ing that America cannot and will not play a very large part in the active conflict. These facts have been gleaned first-hand by Mr. Piatt In conversa tion with captured Teutons brought back from the firing lines by the 1'rench. Mr. Piatt declared that the American a pie could not praise too highly the mch people and soldiers for their riflce, bravery and confidence dis played in the war and only hoped that now that America is one of the allies that self-same spirit would be imbibed by all Americans.
